Long Island architect Rex Heuermann, 59, has been charged with the murders of three of the women who became known as the 'Gilgo Four' after their bodies were discovered along a stretch of Ocean Parkway near Gilgo Beach in Long Island in 2010. He appeared in court today, August 1, for a brief hearing, in which Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney said investigators met with the defence counsel to go over the schedule of handing over discovery in the case. Mr Tierney said this is a "thirteen-year case so as you saw we have a great deal of information, evidence photographs, reports, to provide to the defence counsel. We have begun that process." Prosecutors said they've given Heuermann's lawyer at least 8 terabytes of material - equivalent to around 2,500 pages of records, along with about 100 hours of surveillance video recorded outside Heuermann's home and office prior to his arrest on July 13. Mr Tierney said it's just a fraction of the evidence amassed since the bodies were found in 2010. He said more evidence will be turned over on a rolling basis. Heuermann did not speak at the hearing, which began half an hour late as prosecutors met his lawyer and Judge Timothy Mazzei behind closed doors. Prosecutors and Heuermann's lawyer, Michael Brown, reached a confidentiality agreement that prohibits sharing copies of the evidence with the public. Some of the evidence includes sensitive photos of the women's remains as they were found. "The press has convicted my client without seeing a shred of evidence," Mr Brown told reporters after the hearing.){kind=link}
